Abstract

Electrochemical detection methods are the more appropriate detection methods when it comes to the sensitive and specific determination of biomarkers. Biomarkers are the biological targets for disease diagnosis and monitoring. This review focuses on recent advances in label-free detection of biomarkers for infectious disease diagnosis. The current state of the art for rapid detection of infectious diseases and their clinical applications and challenges were discussed. Label-free electroanalytical methods are probably the most promising means to achieve this. We are currently in the early stages of the emerging technology of using label-free electrochemistry of proteins to develop biosensors. To date, antibody-based biosensors have been intensively developed, although many improvements in reproducibility and sensitivity are still needed. Moreover, there is no doubt that a growing number of aptamers and hopefully label-free biosensors based on nanomaterials will soon be used for disease diagnosis and therapy monitoring. And also here in this review article, we have discussed recent developments in the diagnosis of bacterial and viral infections, as well as the current status of the use of label-free electrochemical methods for monitoring inflammatory diseases.
